Hello,
Have you checked that the output device has available space
via UNIX command df ?
If Fortran records are ~1k then ~260Mb have been consumed by
step 17000; another 93000 steps will result in ~1.5Gb.
As recently mentioned by Yong Duan, a 1 or 2 ps output frequency
is usually sufficient; see google search:
output frequency site:amber.ch.ic.ac.uk
So ntwx=1000 is recommended.
